Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
3. The system of claim 1, wherein the map updating server includes a candidate group creating unit gathering the object change information from the at least one or more change detecting devices, generating information for a group of candidates that are change objects of the object change information, and distributing the candidate group information to the change detecting devices, and wherein upon approaching one of one of the candidates included in the candidate group information, the change detecting device captures a candidate image for the candidate and transmits the captured candidate image to the map updating server.
4. The system of claim 1, wherein the map updating server includes a candidate identifying unit identifying whether the candidate of the candidate image is a true change object only when not hidden by an obstacle and, if the candidate is identified to be the true change object, updating the high-definition map on the true change object, and wherein the updated high-definition map is distributed to the at least one or more change detecting devices.
5. The system of claim 4, wherein the candidate group information includes an deactivation list that delays transmitting a specific candidate image, and wherein if the same candidate is hidden by an obstacle not to be recognized from a candidate image gathered for the same candidate from at least two or more change detecting devices, the map updating server includes the same candidate in the deactivation list for a preset time.
6. The system of claim 1, wherein the change detecting device compares the property and feature point spatial coordinates of the object recognized per frame of the road image with an object of the high-definition map and, upon determining that the objects match each other in at least one or more frames, determine that there is no object change.
11. The method of claim 9, wherein the candidate group information includes an deactivation list that delays transmitting a specific candidate image, and wherein if the same candidate is hidden by an obstacle not to be recognized from a candidate image gathered for the same candidate from at least two or more change detecting devices, the map updating server includes the same candidate in the deactivation list for a preset time.
12. The method of claim 7, further comprising comparing the property and feature point spatial coordinates of the object recognized per frame of the road image with an object of the high-definition map and, upon determining that the objects match each other in at least one or more frames, determining that there is no object change.
